H.P. LOVECRAFT'S PICKMAN'S MODEL JAMIE DELANO STEVE PUGH

A while back i was asked by my friend Steve Pugh if i would help him on a short story for Self Made Hero books the story was H.P Lovecraft's Pickman's model
for THE LOVECRAFT ANTHOLOGY VOL 2
Steve needed to keep to his deadlines with HOTWIRE for Radical Comics, i said a big yes! as it was a chance to work with Steve, you see I'm a big fan of Steve's work on SHARKMAN and HOTWIRE.
Steve asked me to draw character designs and layouts based on Jamie Delano's script , i enjoyed this as well as i had never worked with Mr Delano just read his work over the years so this was a challenge.
Steve ok'd things with the Editor Dan Lockwood and we had lift off .

So here's my character designs and page layouts 10 pages altogether although in the printed version there are 11 pages , Steve managed to still use my layouts as a guide to tweak the extra page .
It was decided in the end not to show the monster's whole image like the old Hammer films , you use your imagination to see the true horror.

i have just bought a copy of the book and must say it's a great package so very proud to have helped out, the book is available to buy from comic shops, book shops and amazon.co.uk/Lovecraft-Anthology-II
